Do you people think it's easier to date online or date in person?

Personally I think in person is easier, mainly because anytime I say anything online I am afraid it will be misread or something and cause someone to get angry at me. Not to mention the potential that the person you know online is lying, or not even an actual person to begin with.

I can't stand online friendships or dating.

At least you are an adult woman - for me, it's one of the key things about my generation.

Some users here have spoken very negatively of online dating and I agree with the things they say, that and I just actually find text-only communication extremely awkward.

Some aspies may find it more comfortable because they don't have to worry about body language and all that, but I'm the opposite - I can't determine a lot of things from text-only.

What do you mean by 'online dating'? There are dating websites where people chat first to later date in person. The way you word it makes me think that there are some for who the online part is all that matters.
